  • Stripped to the waist we fall into the river
    Cover your eyes so you don't know the secret
    I've been trying to hide
    We held our breath to see our names are written
    On the wreck of '86
    That was the year I knew the panic was over

    Yeah, since we found out
    Since we found out

    That anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could

    After the war, we said we'd fight together
    I guess we thought that's just what humans do
    Letting darkness grow
    As if we need its palette and we need its color

    But now I've seen it through
    And now I know the truth

    That anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could

    Baby, I'll give you everything you need
    I'll give you everything you need, oh
    I'll give you everything you need
    But I don't think I need you

    Stripped to the waist we fall into the river
    Cover your eyes so you don't know the secret
    I've been trying to hide
    We held our breath to see our names are written
    On the wreck of '86
    That was the year I knew the panic was over

    Yeah, since we found out
    Since we found out

    That anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could happen
    Anything could

    I know it's gonna be
    I know it's gonna be
    I know it's gonna be
    I know it's gonna be
    I know it's gonna be
    I know it's gonna be
    I know it's gonna be
    I know it's gonna be, oh

    (But I don't think I need you)

  • Marcus from Columbia, MoThis song is absolutely beautiful. I fell in love with her music after listening to "Lights" a few times and I love everything she does. She has very well crafted acoustic versions of a lot of her songs, too. She just has something that a lot of other pop artists don't. Very original.
